Abstract

Problems caused by interaction between paging optimization and synchronizing CSG information are mitigated by setting a network indication indicating, for example, that a subscriber is no longer a member of a CSG, but the network has not yet received confirmation that an access terminal associated with the subscriber has been informed of this. A timer-based scheme may be employed for removing a CSG ID from the subscriber information for a subscriber once it is determined that the subscriber is no longer a member of the CSG. In addition, a temporary member of a CSG may determine whether it is still a member of a CSG upon expiration of a CSG timer. Also, the frequency with which an access terminal registers may be changed based on various criteria. Furthermore, an allowed CSG list may be selectively included in a page message depending on the destination of the page message.

The disclosures of each of these provisional applications are hereby incorporated by reference. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In general, the present invention relates to wireless communication. Specifically, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to improving communication performance. [Prior Art] • A network to provide various types of services (multimedia services, etc.) to users in the wireless communication area, for example, voice, data, for example, with different cells deployed in a prescribed geographical area. In a typical implementation, (201119314 in order to correspond to the cell service area service area in the network) access points are distributed throughout the network, the access to the area served by the road access to the access terminal (such as the phone) Wireless connection is available. With the rapid growth in demand for inter-speed and multimedia data services, there are challenges to achieving efficient and robust communication systems with enhanced performance. In order to supplement general network access points (such as 'macro access points'), access points with smaller coverage (for example, installed in the user's home) are deployed to provide more robust indoor wireless to the mobile unit. Coverage or other coverage. For example, 'such a small coverage access point can be called a femto access point, a femto cell service area, a home node B (HNB), a family evolution node Tsuen Wan) or an access point base station... This smaller coverage base station is connected to the Internet and mobile service provider's network via a DSL router or cable modem. In reality, a relatively large number of small coverage access points can be deployed in the network. Thus, when the paged access terminal moves in an interseged state, the network will potentially need to send paging messages to a larger number of access points (e.g., hNB and HeNB). However, most of these access points have restricted access (e.g., including closed user group (CSG) cell service areas). Therefore, paging optimization can be used to avoid sending a page to an access point that is not authorized to access the terminal. For example, the network may only page the access terminal at those access points associated with the Tracking Area Identifier (TAI) and the CSG ID (CSG ID), where the TAI is located at the access terminal. In the TAI list, the CSG ID is located in the allowed CSG list (eg, csg white list) of the access terminal. 201119314 A potential problem with the use of this type of beer optimization involves its interaction with the access terminals of the network and cSG user information (eg, allowed CSG lists). For example, a user may be removed from the CSG but may not have an updated CSG list for the access terminal at some time. If the network is updated 'and then the access terminal is not paged at any access point associated with the CSG, then it is possible that the access terminal is in idle mode at the access point for the csg and cannot be paged . As another example, when a csg subscription expires, the entry for this (4) in the allowed CSG list for that access point may not be removed immediately. In this case, the access terminal may not be able to be paged if the access terminal is resident in the inter-mode at the access point for the coffee before deciding that the subscription has expired. Another potential problem with paging optimization relates to how long it will be to store the expired CSG ID of the csg in the network (e.g., in a subscription server, mobility manager, etc.). One possible approach is to store the csg until after the CSG 1 is removed from the list of access terminals (e.g., by Open Action Alliance Device Management (〇MA_DM) update or over-the-air update). But the method needs to run 〇MA_DM or 〇ΤΑ to remove the CSG. As described above, paging optimization can be used to avoid sending a page to an access point where the access terminal is not authorized. One way to accomplish this is to include a whitelist of such access terminals (e.g., a CSG whitelist) in the page. For example, the action manager can use its knowledge of the whitelist to (4) its paging. Therefore, paging optimization can be optionally performed at the action manager. As another example, if an inter-access point lane (e.g., HeNB gateway, HeNB-GW) is used then the access point gateway can use the whitelist included in paging 201119314 to filter the paging. Therefore, the + + port can optionally perform paging optimization at the access point gateway. Further, after the _ sub, the access point can make (4) the self-list to determine the 传 to send the page through the air. Therefore, paging optimization can be optionally performed at & Old J at the access point. This is useful if the action manager or access point is the first to say that the person does not perform any paging optimization. However, if the access point (eg, HeNB) is a client device, there is a concern that sending a whitelist to the access point may violate security. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A brief overview of an exemplary aspect of the present invention is provided below. In the discussion of this case, any reference to a terminology refers to the invention's one or more aspects. In some aspects, the present invention relates to alleviating problems caused by interaction between paging optimization and synchronization of CSG information stored in the network and CSG information stored in access terminals accessing the network. For example, when a user is removed from or a subscription to the CSG expires, the network can set an indication to indicate that the user is no longer a member of the CSG. In some aspects, the indication may indicate that the removal of the CSG ID from the list maintained at the access terminal associated with the user is pending. That is, the indication can indicate that the network knows that the user is no longer a member of the CSG, but the access terminal associated with the user may not be aware of this fact. When this indication is set, the network can still page the access terminal at the access point associated with the CSG. Therefore, an access terminal resident in an access point that does not allow access by the access terminal (for example, 201119314 has recently lost its membership in the coffee) will still be expected. But 'the network will not allow the access terminal to access this access point, since the user is no longer a member of this CSG. In some aspects, the present invention relates to a timer based solution for Deciding that the user is no longer a member of the CSG removes the CSG ID from the user information for that user. For example, the network can start a timer after deciding that the user is no longer a member of this -. If the user-related access terminal expires when the timer expires; access to the CSG-related access point, the network removes the CSGID from the user information. A corresponding timer is also used at the access terminal to ensure that the access terminal will no longer reside on an access point that does not allow access (e.g., due to loss of gambling eligibility). For example, if the access terminal accesses (eg, reselects) the access point with the (10) (four), then if the access terminal is accessing (eg, reselecting) the specified time period _, no access Any access point associated with the CSG requires the access terminal to log in at this access point. Here, the timer period for the access terminal is shorter than the timer period for the network. By using this timer-based scheme, it is possible to ensure that the access terminal reselects to this CSG after the network has removed the CSGID from the user information (eg, via the operation of the network timer). The associated access point will then require the access terminal to log in to the network. Since in this case, the access of the access terminal will be rejected by the network (due to the removal of the CSG ID), the access terminal will know from the money that it is a member of the coffee. Therefore, due to the loss of CSG membership, the access terminal will not be resident at an access point that does not allow access by the access terminal. 201119314 In some aspects, the invention relates to (4), by which a temporary member of a coffee maker determines whether it is still a member of the coffee after the CSG timer expires. For example, both the network and the access terminal can maintain a coffee timer to determine when a temporary subscription to the CSG expires. However, it is possible that the csg timer of the network goes to: after the CSG timer of the access terminal expires. Therefore, after the CSG timer of the access terminal expires, the access (4) can take the step ' to determine if it is still a member of the CSG. For example, the access terminal can be transferred, and (4) the latest CSG list of the terminal (four) access terminal. Alternatively, the access terminal can initiate an access (e.g., login) at an access point associated with the csg. In this case, if the network's timer has expired, the login will be rejected, and when the network timer has not expired, the login is successful. In some aspects, the invention relates to changing the frequency at which an access terminal logs in. For example, in conjunction with a timer-based temporary CSG membership scheme, if the access terminal determines that it is still a member of the CSG after the CSG timer of the access terminal expires, the access terminal may increase its presence and The frequency with which csg-related access points log in. In this way, the access terminal can more quickly determine when its subscription actually expires. As another example, the access terminal can change the frequency of its login based on the available wireless coverage. Here, if only wireless coverage from the CSG cell service area or the mixed cell service area is available, then the access terminal can increase its frequency of registration in these cell service areas. Conversely, if wireless coverage from at least one alternate cell service area is available, the access terminal may not increase (eg, may reduce) the frequency of its logins. β 201119314 In some aspects, the present invention relates to --, .-^ The destination of the call is to selectively include the allowed list in the paging message).

These aspects of the invention are described in detail below in conjunction with Figures 3-14. As described below, in some implementations, one or more network entities provide a CSG indication management function 110' to, for example, set and use a network-based indication, wherein the indication indicates that the user is no longer a member of the CSG. This aspect of the invention is described in detail in A-5. In some implementations, the access terminal 102 provides a periodic CSG login function 120 to access the CSG-related storage when the access terminal does not have a specified time period. When the point is taken, the access terminal is caused to log in at the access point. In addition, one or more network entities provide a timer-based CSG id removal function 112, so that when the access terminal is at the timer The CSG ID is removed from the CSG user information when the access point associated with the CSG has not previously been accessed. This aspect of the invention is described in detail in Figures 6-8. In some implementations, the access terminal 102 provides login The frequency control function 122 is adapted to change the frequency at which the access terminal logs in according to various criteria. This aspect of the invention is described in detail in Figure 9. In some implementations, the access terminal 102 also provides timer-based cs ( j list update function 18 to update the CSG list 116 maintained at the access terminal.

For example, HSS 218 can communicate with CSG Management Server and CSG 13 201119314 List Server 224. For example, the 'CSG Management Server 222 can provide functionality that enables a CSG administrator (e.g., the owner of the HeNB) to add/remove users (e.g., access terminals associated with the user) to/from a given CSG. The CSG list server 224 can manage a list of CSGs for users in the network 200. For example, when a user is added to or removed from the CSG, the CSG list server 224 can communicate with the UEs in the network 200 to update the list of CSGs maintained at those UEs (eg, 'permitted CSG list). As indicated by the dashed line 226, the UE 202 can communicate with the CSG list feeder 224 via the OMA-DM protocol or the OTA protocol. That is, the UE 202 can establish a communication link with the CSG list server through the HeNB 204 or some other access point in the network 200 (not shown in Figure 2). SGW 210 may communicate with Packet Data Network Gateway (PGW) 228 via an S5 or S8 protocol as indicated by line 230. PGW 228 may communicate with the Internet, such as the Internet, as indicated by lines 236 and 238, respectively. 232 communicates with a packet data network entity such as IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) 234. In addition, the Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) 240 can communicate with the PGW 228 via the Gx protocol as indicated by line 242, and communicate with the 1MS 234 via the Rx protocol as indicated by line 244. It should be understood that the content of the present invention can be implemented in various types of networks. For example, in some aspects, functions described in this example, such as MME and/or SGW, may be performed by the Mobile Switching Center/Location Location Register (MSC/VLR) and/or Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) in the UMTS system. In addition, in some aspects, as described in the HSS, the functions described in this case can be performed by the Home Location Register (HLR) in the UMTS system. Referring now to Figures 3 - 5, these figures illustrate exemplary operations that can be performed when a user loses membership in CS. The loss of such membership can occur in various ways. For example, in some cases, The user is removed from the CSG (eg, as described in Figure 4.) In some cases, the subscription to csG may expire. For example, the user is a temporary member of the CSG after a specified period of time or at a specified time The subscription expires. As mentioned above, before the access terminal associated with the user finds that the user is no longer a member of the CSG, some time may elapse. Therefore, at some time, there may be no updates in the Accessing a list of csg maintained at the terminal (eg, a list of allowed CSGs). In this case, if the access terminal is resident at an access point associated with the CSG, the access terminal will be unreachable due to Once the membership is no longer valid, the network will usually stop calling the access terminal at the access point associated with the CSG. To solve this problem, the network can set the indication according to the content of the case. In order to remove the user from the CSG or the subscription of the coffee expires, enabling the network to know that the paging is being accessed at the CSG. In some implementations, the indication can be stored (eg, in coffee and The exchange between the halls: the user's (10) subscription (ie, user) information. In some implementations, this does not include the barrier defined as the CSG state.

Once it is determined that the user who is using β 丨忑 is no longer a member of CSCJ, such as removing from the CSG or subscribing to the expired nickname J, the "pending" value can be set. The value of "actlve" is the default value. 15 201119314 By using this finger* scheme, some advantages can be obtained. As described above, the network can avoid situations in which after the subscription change, the access terminal cannot be paged because it is resident at the access point associated with the CSG. In addition, the solution can reduce the regulatory requirements for the network, which involves updating the CSG list at the access terminal when the csg subscription information changes. For example, after a subscription change, the service provider may not need to update the CSG list immediately. Alternatively, the service provider can choose to update the (10) list of access terminals according to a schedule (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly) or in some other way. Example operations associated with setting and using CSG indications as shown in the present description will now be described in more detail in conjunction with the flowcharts of Figures 3A and 3B. For the sake of convenience: the operations of Figures 3A and 3B (or any other operations discussed or taught in this context) may be described as being performed by a particular component (e.g., i, 2, or Μ), but it should be understood. Yes, these operations can be performed by other types of components' and using a different number of components. In addition, f should be understood that 'in a given implementation, one or more of the operations described herein may not be used. As shown in block 302 of Figure 3A, at some point in time, the network entity (e.g., (8) determines that the user is no longer a member of (10). For example, the entity = can receive a message from the CSG management server, wherein the message indicates _ A user. Alternatively, the network entity (for example, by the expiration of the ::: hopper) may decide that the user's subscription to the CSG has been in some aspects, and the term user corresponds to the access terminal. For example, a person who owns or uses an access terminal can be inserted, wherein the access terminal 16 201119314 can access an access point associated with a particular CSG. In some aspects, the access terminal can be considered (eg, The access terminal may include a user. Therefore, when it is mentioned that the user is no longer a member of the CSG, it also means that the specific access terminal (or some access terminals) is no longer the CSG. The member, as indicated by block 304, in response to the decision of block 302, the network entity sets an indication to indicate that the user is no longer a member of the CSG. For example, the network entity can set the status to remove pending. Value, or There are some other ways to provide an indication. In some implementations, in conjunction with setting the indication, the network entity can update the CSG user information maintained for the user at the network entity to reflect the setting of the indication. In some aspects, The setting of the indication indicates that the removal of the corresponding CSG ID from a particular access terminal or a list of CSGs at a particular access terminal is pending. As indicated by block 306, the network entity is directed to the action manager ( For example, the MME, SGSN, MSC, etc.) sends the indication. For example, the network entity can send the CSG user information of the user updated at block 304 to the action manager. As indicated by block 308, the network entity can be Optionally transmitting a message to initiate an update of the CSG list at the access terminal corresponding to the user. For example, the network entity can send a message to the CSG list server, wherein the message causes the CSG list server to store the message with the CSG list server. The terminal is communicated to update the CSG list at the access terminal. As indicated by block 310, the action manager receives the indication sent at block 306. The action manager may thus update the CSG user information maintained for the user at the action manager to reflect receipt 17 201119314 to the indication (eg, 'received updated CSG status in CSG user information). 312, at some point in time, the action manager may decide to page the access terminal. For example, in some implementations, the action manager may receive (eg, from the SGW) a message indicating that the access terminal is to be paged. In some implementations, an action manager (e.g., SGSN) can receive a packet destined for the access terminal. As shown in block 314 of Figure 3B, the action manager can follow the decision result of block 312 and the indication of block 310. Received to page the access terminal. In particular, the action manager can page the access terminal at an access point associated with the CSG whose access terminal (user) is no longer a member. That is, after receiving the indication, the action manager knows that it wants to page the access terminal at the access point associated with the CS (3), even though the access terminal is no longer a member of this CSG. It should be understood Other criteria may be considered when identifying the access point to which the paging for the access terminal should point. For example, only the paging may be sent to those access points that are also associated with ΤΑΙ (or some other suitable indication). The ΤΑΙ is associated with the access terminal (eg, it is listed in the ΤΑ! list of the access terminal). Therefore, ΜΜΕ can be set to indicate the access terminal (for example, the CSG status is set to shift) The access terminal is paged at all CSGs except pending and announces the TAI that the access terminal can reside in. As indicated by block 316, at some point in time, the access terminal may attempt to access and not access the access terminal. Then, the access point 1 of the CSG_ can be paged to the access terminal at the CSG, or the access terminal 18 201119314 can attempt to access by automatic or manual reselection. End The CSG list of the end has not been updated' so when the access terminal is within the coverage of the access point, the access terminal still determines that it is allowed to access the access point. Therefore, the access terminal can be in the Access is attempted at the access point. However, based on the identifier received at block 310, the action manager knows that the access terminal is not allowed to access any access points associated with the CSG. Therefore, the action manager will reject the access point. The access attempted by the access terminal (e.g., by sending a reject message indicating that the access terminal is not authorized for the CSG). As indicated by block 318, the access terminal may update based on the reject message. The CSG list maintained at the access terminal. For example, after receiving the rejection message, the access terminal may decide that it is no longer a member of the corresponding CSG. Therefore, 'in this case, the OMA may not be used. The access terminal CSG list is updated in the case of a DM, OTA, or some other protocol for communicating with the CSG list server. As indicated by block 320, the action manager can rely on the rejection. New CSG user information for the user maintained at the action manager. For example, the action manager can delete the corresponding CSG ID from the CSG user information. As indicated by block 322, the action manager can also rely on the rejection. To send a message to the network entity. For example, the action manager can send a message indicating that the corresponding CS (} m message is removed from the CSG user information for the user. As indicated by block 324, the network entity can then be based on the block. The message 322 is sent to update the CSG user information maintained for the user at the network entity. For example, the network entity can delete the corresponding CSG ID from the CSG 19 201119314 user information. Figure 4 depicts A more detailed example of a dialing flow operation performed in conjunction with removing a user from the CSG. In particular, this example is described in the context of an LTE or UMTS system. In step 1, the CSG Manager sends a request to the CSG Management Server to remove the user from the CSG. For example, the CSG Manager can log in to the web page with a secure user ID and password, press the Tab key on the web page for his or her CSG, perform a search for the user (eg, access terminal), and select to remove User. In step 2, the CSG Management Server communicates with the HSS or HLR (hereinafter referred to simply as HSS for convenience) to update the list of allowed CSGs stored by the user in the HSS. Since the allowed CSG list on the access terminal has not been updated to indicate that the CSG has been removed, the CSG management server can indicate to the HSS that the user has been removed (eg, the CSG status setting for the entry will be set) To remove pending). In some implementations, the CSG management server accesses the user's HSS to update the allowed CSG list. In the case of roaming, provision can be made to enable the CSG management server of the visited network where the CSG is located to access the user's HSS, or to process CSG subscription information in some other manner. In step 3, the HSS updates the CSG user information for the user (e.g., sets the CSG status to remove pending). In addition, if the access terminal is currently connected to the MME or SGSN (hereinafter referred to simply as MME for convenience), the HSS sends an Insert User Profile (IMSI, CSG Subscription Profile) message to the MME, where the message indicates (eg , allowed cs G column 20 201119314

In step 4, the MME /3PL is operative to remove the CSG manager and the confirmation has been moved. In step 5, the HSS confirms to the CSG management server that the user has been removed. In step 6, the CSG manages the server to the user. In step 7, the HSS notifies the CSG list server that the access terminal is no longer a member of the CSG in order to update the CSG list on the access terminal (e.g., the allowed CSG list). In step 8, the CSG list server and the access terminal perform an application layer update of the CSG list of the access terminal (e.g., using an OTA or OMA-DM program). In step 9, the CS (} list server notifies the HSS that the CSG list has been successfully updated. Subsequently, the HSS may send an Insert User Profile (IMSI, Subscription Profile) message to the authentication, wherein the message indicates that the CSG list has been The CSG is removed (the dialing process is not shown). The dialing procedure of Figure 3 can be applied to an access terminal in idle mode or connected mode. In the case of intervening mode, the access terminal needs to be paged and Establish a connection to perform step 8. Figure 5 depicts some of the operations performed when the network learns that the access terminal has updated its csG list. For example, CSG user information at the network entity or action manager can be updated for movement. In addition to the corresponding csG ID (if any), the CSG indication is reset (eg, the CSG status is set to be valid). As indicated by block 502, at some previous point in time, the network entity has determined that the user is no longer Members of the CSG, and set corresponding indications. Therefore, in some aspects, these operations correspond to the operational phase 21 201119314 described above in blocks 3〇2 and 304. As shown in block 504, at some time Point, the access terminal corresponding to the user updates the CSG list maintained at the access terminal to remove the CSG ID for the CSG. The action can be triggered by various events. In some cases, access After the terminal is rejected by the access point of the CSG, the access terminal may update its CSG list (eg, as discussed above at block 318.) In some cases, the access terminal may be associated with a csg list server Communicate to obtain updated CSG information (eg, an updated allowed CSG list. For example, the access terminal can perform an application layer update (eg, using an 0MA-DM or 0TA program) to access the access The CSG list at the terminal is synchronized with the CSG list at the network. As discussed above at block 308, the update can be initiated by the network. For example, after updating the CSG list information for the access terminal, the CSG list server A communication with the access terminal can be initiated to also update the list of messages at the access terminal. In other cases, the access terminal can initiate the communication. As indicated by block 506, at some At some point in time, the network entity receives an indication that the access terminal has updated its CSG list. The indication can be received in a variety of ways. In some cases, the network entity receives a message from the action manager, wherein the message indicates action management The device rejects the access attempted by the access terminal at the access point for this (10) (e.g., as discussed above at block 322). In some cases, the 'network entity is from the CSG list server or some/ The other network entity receives the message 'where the message indicates that the access terminal has updated its CSG list. As indicated by block 508, 'subsequently, according to 22 201119314 receiving the indication at block 506, the network entity updates the network. CSG user information maintained by the entity for this user. For example, the network entity can delete the corresponding CSG ID from the csg user information command. Moreover, in some implementations, the network entity can reset the value of the stored indication (e.g., reset the value of the CSG status stored in the csg user information). As indicated by block 510, the network entity can send a message to the action manager based on receipt of the indication at block 〇6. For example, the network entity can send a message requesting removal of the corresponding CSG ID from the CSG User Information Order for the user (e.g., by sending updated CSG User Information to the Action Manager). As indicated by block 512, the action manager then updates the CSG user information maintained for the user at the action manager based on the message sent at block 51. For example, the action manager can delete the corresponding CSG ID from the csg user information. In addition, the network entity can reset the value of the stored indication (e.g., CSG status). Referring now to Figures 6-8, in some cases, (e.g., the CSG Manager) may agree to a temporary member of the user 疋CSG. For example, the temporary membership may expire at a specified time or within a specified time period after the membership is established. Therefore, the network can track the expiration of the membership by using the CSG timer and the expiration time information stored in the CSG user information. Using the expiration time information in the CSG user information enables the MME to properly page the access terminal when the user is removed from the CSQ or the timer expires. For example, setting the CSG expiration time to an expired value may be shown after the access terminal is removed from the CSG order or the CSG temporary member 23 201119314 expires, the access terminal does not update its allowed CSG list. CSG timer functions and expiration time information can be provided at multiple nodes (or entities) in the network. For example, separate timers can be maintained at the HSS and MME. Here, when a temporary member (user) is added to the CSG, the HSS may send the expiration time information to the MME (e.g., by CSG user information for the temporary user).

HSS可以通知或可以不通知MME:其CSG計時器的到 期。例如,通過不發送該資訊,可以減少這些實體之間的通 訊量。但是,HSS可以仍然在該HSS發送給MME的CSG用 戶資訊中包括具有到期時間的CSG ID MME使用其CSG計時器來控制CSG的存取。例如, 當存取終端存取與CSG相關的存取點(例如,CSG細胞服務 區)時,MME可以檢查該存取點的CSG ID是否與針對該存 取終端(用戶)的CSG用戶資訊中的CSG ID相對應’並還 檢查該到期時間(如果有的話)是否仍然有效(例如,沒有 到期)。 如本案所述,在由於存取終端在CSG處被傳呼、發起 上行鏈路資料傳送、發起源自行動站的撥叫或者發起諸如 L AU/RAU/TAU程序之類的登錄程序(例如,由自動或手動 重新選擇觸發),而使得存取終端要存取封閉CSG存取點(例 如,封閉CSG細胞服務區)的情況下,如果該CSG ID不在 該CSG用戶資訊中或者計時器已經到期時,那麼MME可以 發送具有適當錯誤碼的拒絕訊息。隨後,該存取終端可以從 其CSG列表中移除針對該CSG的條目。 24 201119314 备CSG訂閱到期時,針對該存取終端的CSG列表中的 此CSG的條目可能還沒有被移除,故該存取終端可以隨後以 閒置模式常駐在該CSG的CSG細胞服務區中。#如本案所 討論的執行料最㈣時,肖了確㈣呼料转取终端, 隨E可以在該CSG用戶資訊中的所有csg處傳呼該存取終 端’其中所述CSG用戶資訊將該存取終端可以在其上常駐的 TAI告之於衆。不管MME儲存的csg訂閱是否到期,都可 以執行該傳呼。 在些態樣,本發明涉及一種用於控制網路(例如, HSS和MME)將要(例如,在針對用戶的CSG用戶資訊中) 储存到期的CSG# CSGID多長時間的方案。這裏在與第 規疋的時間段相關的第一計時器到期之後,維持csg用戶 資訊的網路實體可以針對給定用戶從CSG用戶資訊中移除 =SG IE^結合這些操作,在存取終端處可以使用第二計時 ,來確保在不嘗試在與該CSG相關的任何存取點中的一個 存取點進行登錄的情況下,該存取終端不常駐在這些存取點 中的任何存取點過長時間(例如,第二規定的時間段卜通The HSS may or may not notify the MME of the expiration of its CSG timer. For example, by not sending this information, the amount of communication between these entities can be reduced. However, the HSS may still include the CSG ID with expiration time in the CSG user information sent by the HSS to the MME using its CSG timer to control access by the CSG. For example, when the access terminal accesses an access point associated with the CSG (eg, a CSG cell service area), the MME may check whether the CSG ID of the access point is in the CSG user information for the access terminal (user). The CSG ID corresponds to 'and also checks if the expiration time (if any) is still valid (for example, has not expired). As described in the present case, a login procedure such as a L AU/RAU/TAU procedure is initiated (eg, by the access terminal being paged at the CSG, initiating uplink data transmission, initiating a call originating from a mobile station, or Automatically or manually reselecting the trigger), such that if the access terminal wants to access a closed CSG access point (eg, a closed CSG cell service area), if the CSG ID is not in the CSG user information or the timer has expired Then, the MME can send a reject message with the appropriate error code. The access terminal can then remove entries for the CSG from its CSG list. 24 201119314 When the standby CSG subscription expires, the entry for this CSG in the CSG list of the access terminal may not have been removed, so the access terminal may then stay in the CSG cell service area of the CSG in idle mode. . #If the execution material discussed in this case is the most (4), Xiao (4) the call forwarding terminal, with E can page the access terminal at all csg in the CSG user information, where the CSG user information is stored The terminal can be informed by the resident TAI on it. The paging can be performed regardless of whether the csg subscription stored by the MME expires. In some aspects, the present invention is directed to a scheme for controlling how long (eg, HSS and MME) the network (eg, in the CSG user information for the user) stores expired CSG# CSGIDs. Here, after the expiration of the first timer associated with the time period of the rule, the network entity maintaining the csg user information can remove the SG IE^ from the CSG user information for a given user to combine these operations, in access A second timing can be used at the terminal to ensure that the access terminal does not reside in any of these access points without attempting to log in at one of the access points associated with the CSG.

Figure 6 illustrates an example of the relationship between the two timers discussed above, where T1 is used at the network and T2 is used at the access terminal. In this scheme, if the access terminal does not log in at any access point of (10) for a certain period of time, the access terminal needs to log in at the one of the 25 201119314. In addition, Satoshi and _ need to maintain expiration (10) information for time two T1 = 1 day). As shown in Figure 6, the time ^ begins after the access terminal (user) is no longer a member of the CSG (e.g., due to the removal of the user from the CSG or the subscription expires). As long as the deposit terminal needs to log in at the CSG's fetch point and the access terminal does not access the access point at least at time T1, then after time T1, the network can securely access the access terminal. Csg user information removes the CSG ID of the CSG 使用° uses the second time period D2 (where T1>T2), so that if the access terminal does not observe the (10) access point at least time Τ2 then the access terminal You need to log in. For example, as shown in Figure 6, the timer for n can begin at the most non-access stratum (NAS) message sent by the storage end to the access point of the CSG. If the access terminal does not access the access point of the CSG (e.g., send an MS message to the access point) before the time expires, the job will be required when the access terminal reselects the access material. The access terminal performs the login 1 access point at this access point to (4) page the access terminal at time η, so that the access terminal offset time I Τ 2 when the error is calculated, and can still be paged. If the access terminal reselects the CSG' before the time Τ2 expires, the access terminal needs to ride (four), and the wire is fed. The access terminal that is logged in will be rejected, and the CSG ID will be removed from its (10) list as discussed in this case. The access terminal that reselects the CSG after the time T2 P$ has expired will log in. 'will be rejected and removed from its (10) list. 51 26 201119314 Figure 7 illustrates the use of a Csg meter in the network to remove the user's stomach to decide when to delete the user's beta CSG information on the network. Except for (4), these operations can be performed in addition to the above. In the case of a network entity (eg, HSS and MME), as indicated by block 7〇2, the member of (10) is determined at some point in time (eg, due to removal or subscription expiration). For example, as discussed above, the user may receive an appropriate indication from the csg manager, or the MME may receive the appropriate indication from the HSS by your T4QC pull & As indicated by block 7〇4, the CSG timer is set (e.g., 'on') according to the decision result of block 702. Therefore, the time η is started in the example of Fig. 6. Here, the 'network (eg 'Song* Mme') can maintain the CS (J ID) of the CSG in the user's (10) subscription information until a specified period of time (eg, time T1 of FIG. 6). As shown in Figure 6, the CSG timer can then be determined to have expired. For example, it can be determined that the user's access terminal does not have access to any access points associated with the CSG for a specified period of time after the timer is set. The access can take various forms. In some cases, the access is defined as the transmission of the NAS message. For example, determining that the access terminal does not send the NAS message to the access point involves: the access terminal is not in the The fetch point login does not execute the linker at the access point and does not send a service request to the access point. As indicated by block 708, if the timer expires, then the CSG user information maintained at the network is removed. The CSG ID of the CSG.

point). Thus the access terminal can initiate (e. g., reset) time T2 for the csg. If the access terminal reselects the access point associated with the coffee, the access terminal determines whether it has accessed the CSG associated with the CSG for a specified period of time prior to access. Any access point. For example, the access terminal can turn off whether timer T2 has been _ (e.g., at any time when an access point to a given CSG is accessed, time T2 is reset for the csg). As represented by block 806, the access terminal logs in at the access point in accordance with the decision of block 804. For example, if T2 expires, the forwarding terminal will log in. If there is no login, the access terminal will not be allowed to stay at this access point for an extended period of time. At block 8-8, the access terminal determines if the login was successful. 28 201119314 If the login is successful, then this indicates that the network has not removed the CSG ID from the CSG user information for the access terminal. In this case, the access terminal can reset this timer at block 810. If the login is unsuccessful, then this indicates that the network has removed the CS (JID) from the CSG user information for the access terminal. In this case, the access terminal may move from its CSG list at block 812. In addition to this; ^ id. - In addition, as a fail-safe procedure, if the access terminal power is reduced. Or somehow losing track of time, the access terminal will automatically set all entries in the CSG list to indicate The timer has expired. Referring now to Figure 9, in some implementations, it is desirable to allow an access terminal to change the frequency at which it logs in according to one or more criteria. For example, compared to an open cell service area, It is often useful to perform more frequent registrations at the CSG cell service area or mixed cell service area. Furthermore, if the CSG cell service area or mixed cell service area is only available coverage in the area, the access terminal can be reselected. Log in to the cell service area and log in at a reasonably small time interval. For example, the above operations can be performed to secure the access terminal. It is a member of the CSG cell service area or the mixed cell service area. Here, if the access terminal is still not a member, the access terminal is outside the coverage of the area. Therefore, when this is not the case, It is not a good strategy to show the user that it is not in coverage. When an alternate coverage is available, it may not be necessary to log in as frequently. Here, even if the membership of the access terminal expires or it is removed, the access is made. The terminal will still be able to access elsewhere (ie, the access terminal will still be in the overlay). 29 201119314 Figure 9 illustrates an example operation that can be performed by an access terminal to select the frequency at which it is logged in. As shown in 902, at some point in time, the access terminal reselects the cell service area of the access point. As shown in block 9.4, the access terminal may determine one or more frequencies for selecting the frequency of login. For example, the access terminal can determine the type of cell service area (eg, CSG cell service area, mixed cell service area, or open cell service area). Alternatively or additionally, the access terminal can determine the line coverage at the access terminal (eg, whether only wireless coverage from the CSG cell service area is available, wireless coverage only from the mixed cell service area is available, or from at least one alternative The wireless coverage of the cell service area is available. As shown in block 9.6, the access terminal selects the cell in accordance with the decision result of block 904 (eg, based on cell service area type and/or available wireless coverage). How often the service area logs in. Referring now to Figure 10-12, as described above, the expiration time for the temporary CSG member can be used at the network to indicate when the member's subscription expires. Here, to avoid frequent updates CSG User Information, in some implementations, once the membership time expires, the MME and HSS each independently remove their respective CSG entries. In addition, the access terminal can maintain its own timer to track when its subscription expires. However, it is possible that the expiration time of the network timer may not be as long as the expiration of the timer of the access terminal (e.g., later). Thus, after the timer of the access terminal expires, the access terminal may still be a member of the CSG. ® 10-12 ® shows a scheme that enables an access terminal to determine if it is still a member of the CSG after the timer of the access terminal expires. 30 201119314 As shown in block 1002 of Figure 10, after the CSG agrees to membership (e.g., temporary membership), the access terminal can begin the CSG timer. The UE may be notified of the expiration time in various ways. For example, the expiration time can be included in the allowed CSG management object in OMA-DM and OTA updates. The expiration time can also be included in the MME NAS commandback for the connection procedure, the separation procedure, and the location registration procedure (LAU/RAU/TAU). In the case of manual CSG selection, the expiration time is useful in the NAS command response. As indicated by block 1004, at some point in time, the access terminal reselects the access point associated with the CSG and then resides at the access point. Thus, in some aspects, block 1004 represents the scenario in which the access terminal reselects the access point and then decides that its CSG timer has expired when resident at the access point. As indicated by block 1006, at some point in time, the access terminal determines that its CSG timer has expired. In some implementations, the access terminal can display the expiration time to the user for the purpose of displaying information. For example, the access terminal can alert the user when the timer is about to expire. If, at block 1004, the access terminal does not reselect the access point, the access terminal may reselect the access point at block 1008. Thus, in some aspects, block 1008 can represent a scenario in which the access terminal determines that its CSG timer has expired, then reselects the access point and resides in the access before determining whether it is still a member of the CSG. point. As indicated by block 1010, the access terminal takes the appropriate action to update its CSG list based on the decision of block 1-6 to determine if it is still a member of the CSG. As described above, if the timer of the network expires later than the timer of the access terminal, the access terminal is still a member of the CSG. For example, the clock of the access terminal may not be set correctly or may not be synchronized with the network clock. Therefore, since the access terminal may not have the correct time information, after its timer expires, it decides not to immediately remove the CSG ID from its CSG list. Figures 11 and 12 illustrate two different actions that may be performed at block 1010. Figure 11 relates to the scenario in which the access terminal communicates with the CSG list server to determine if the access terminal is still a member of the CSG. As indicated by block 1102, the access terminal (e.g., 'via OMA-DM or OTA command) accesses the CSG list server to obtain an updated CSG list from the network, as indicated by block 1 ( 6 (eg, Allowed CSG list). In some cases, the access terminal may access the CSG list server through an access point that is not associated with the esc}. As represented by block 1104, the access terminal then determines that it is still a member of the CSG based on the updated list (e.g., based on the presence of the CSGID in the CSG list). As shown in block 1106, in some implementations, the access terminal may change the frequency at which it logs in based on the decision of block 11 〇4. For example, the access terminal logs in more frequently than is required for periodic logins to ensure that the CSG is removed from the CSG list as early as possible after the timer expires. Figure 12 relates to the scenario in which the access terminal accesses the access point of the csg to determine if the access terminal is still a member of the CSG. For example, if the access terminal reselects the access point, or if it currently resides in the intervening mode at the access point, then the access terminal can perform a login such as a connection or tracking area new 2011 20111414. If the timer of the network also expires, the MME rejects the access terminal using the appropriate reject code (no authorization for the CSG), so the access terminal removes the CSG from the CSG list at the access terminal. ID. As another example, if the access terminal is connected to the access point, the access terminal can perform a tracking area update (TAU). If the timer of the network also expires, the MME will reject the access terminal' and remove the csg ID from the CSG list of the access terminal. Referring now to the operation of FIG. 12, as indicated by block 12-2, the access terminal initiates an access (e.g., login) at an access point associated with the CSG according to the decision result of block 1006. As represented by block 1204, the access terminal determines if the access (e.g., login) was successful. If the access is successful, the access terminal can change the frequency at which it is logged in at block 1206' (e.g., as described in block 1106 above). If the access is unsuccessful, then the access terminal removes the CSG ID from its CSG list (block 1208). Referring now to Figures 13A-14, in some implementations, the destination may be based on the destination of the paging message. The paging message optionally includes the allowed CSG list information (eg, CSG whitelist). In some cases, the decision to include the allowed CSG list is based on the type of destination node. For example, an allowed CSG list can be sent to the evolved Node B and the access point gateway (e.g., 'HeNB-GW) without the HeNB. In some cases, the decision whether to include the allowed CSG list is based on how many CSGs the destination node supports. In some aspects, the number of supported CSGs can be used as an indication of the type of destination node. For example, if a node supports only a single CSG' then the node can be assumed to be jjeNB. Therefore, the allowed CSG column* is not included in the page to the 33 201119314 node. Relatively speaking, if the section mm# point is not HeNB (for example, the node is HeNB-GW or evolution node b). Therefore, the allowed CSG list can be included in the paging to the node. Figures 13A and 13B illustrate example operations that may be performed by a first node (e.g., 'MMe) to transmit a paging message (e.g., 'eNB, HeNB$ HeNBGw). As shown in block 13G2 of Figure ua, the node receives a message from the second node at a certain point in time to establish communication between the nodes. The message also indicates the type of the second node or the number of #咖: supported by the second node. The message can be in various forms, such as an S1 protocol to establish a message or a configuration message (e.g., including configuration update information for the second node). "As indicated by block 1304, 'If the first node does not know the second node type, then the first node may optionally be supported according to the n point if the message indicates the number of CSGs assisted by the second node A. The == determines the type of the second node. For example, if the message indicates that the second node supports only a single CSG, the first node may determine the second node 〇_. As indicated by block 1306, the first node maintains the The type of the two nodes or the number of coffees supported by the second node. For example, the first node can store the information in the memory device. · ' As indicated by the block measurement, at a certain point in time, the first node receives The request message 4 paging request message means (4) that the access terminal is to be requested. The first node can obtain CSG user information for the current access terminal (for example, the allowed CSG list is shown as shown in block 131G). ) 34 201119314 As shown in block 1312, in some cases the first page request is received to determine that a paging message will be sent to the first 'go' _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ The point will determine whether the allowed (10) list for the access terminal is included in the paging message sent to the second node. As described above, the determination is based on the type of the second node or the number of CSGs of the second node. Block 1316, the first node sends a paging message to the second node. As indicated by square force 1318, the second node can then determine whether to page based on the allowed CSG list (if any) included in the paging message. The access terminal. For example, the second node may determine that the access terminal is incapable of accessing the second node according to the allowed CSG list. In this case, the second node may choose not to page the access terminal. It relates to an implementation in which an access point gateway (e.g., HeNB-GW) determines whether an allowed CSG list is included in a paging message sent to a node. As indicated by block 1402, the access point gateway receives paging. a message, wherein the paging message includes a list of allowed CSGs for the access terminal to be paged. For example, the 'access point gateway can receive the S1 protocol paging from mme. The 'access point gateway' indicates the node to be paged based on the received paging message. As shown in block 14〇6, the access point gateway determines whether the allowed paging is included in the paging sent to the node. CSG list. Here, if the identified node is a HeNB, then the access point gateway will not include the allowed CSG list in the page. As indicated by block 14-8, then the access point gateway is identified to the identified The node transmits the page. Figure 15 illustrates that an access terminal such as (e.g., corresponding to access terminal 1 2011 2 35 201119314) can be incorporated (e.g., in a manner corresponding to a network node ^) Line processor 15G4, (e.g., at - (4) corresponding to network node 108) access point gateway 15〇6, (e.g., in some aspects corresponding to network node (10)) subscription祠Sections of the server 15〇8: The elements of the example elements 1 (4) that are used to perform the operations shown in this case can also be joined to other nodes in the communication system. For example, other nodes in _ may include elements similar to those described for nodes 15 〇 2_15 〇 8 to provide similar functionality. A given node may include one or more of the described elements. For example, an access terminal may include a plurality of transceiver elements that enable the access terminal to operate in multiple (four) and/or communicate via different technologies. As shown in Fig. 15, the access terminal 15A2 includes a transceiver 151() for communicating with other nodes. The transceiver 151G includes a transmitter 1512 for transmitting signals (e.g., messages) and a receiver 1514 for receiving signals. In the second implementation, the action manager 1504, the access point gateway 15〇6, and the subscription server 1508 can include communication between network interfaces 1516, 1518, and 1520 '卩m, respectively, and communicating with other network nodes. For example, network interfaces 1516, 1518, and 152 can be used to communicate with one or more network nodes via wired or wireless backhaul. Nodes 15G2-15G8 also include other components for performing the operations shown in this disclosure. For example, 'nodes 1502_15' 8 may include communication controllers 1522-1528, respectively, to manage communications with other nodes (e.g., to send and receive cores and nodes 7F), as well as to provide other related functions as shown in this disclosure. In the case where two or more of these nodes 15G4•(10) represent an entity that can be closed—the communication controller can, for example, provide functionality to facilitate this.

網路中使用。隨著存取終端(AT)在該網路中移動,在某些 位置’存取終端可以由提供巨集覆蓋的存取點來服務,而在 其他位置,存取終端由提供較小規模覆蓋的存取點來服務。 在一些態樣,較小覆蓋節點可以用於提供增加的容量增長、 39 201119314 室内覆蓋和不同的服務(例如,更加健全的用戶體驗)。 在本案的描述,,在相對較大區域上提供覆蓋的節點 】如存取點)可以稱爲巨集存取點,而在相對較小的區 (例如•住區)上提供覆蓋的節點可以稱爲毫微微存取 點°應當理解的是,本㈣容可以適用於與其他類型的覆蓋 區域相關的節點。例如,微微存取點可以在與巨集區域相比 較小而與毫微微區域相比較大的區域上提供覆蓋(例如,商 業建築物中的覆蓋)。在各種應用中,可以使用其他術語來 才曰代巨集存取點、毫微微存取點或其他存取點類型節點〃例 如,巨集存取點可以配置爲或者稱爲存取節點、基地台、存 取點、進化節點B ( eNodeB )、巨集細胞服務區等等。此外, 毫微微存取點可以配置爲或者稱爲家庭節點B、家庭進化節 點B、存取點基地台、毫微微細胞服務區等等。在一些實現 中,節點可以與一或多個細胞服務區或扇區相關(例如,稱 爲一或多個細胞服務區或扇區或者劃分成一或多個細胞服 務區)。與巨集存取點、毫微微存取點或微微存取點相關的 細胞服務區或扇區可以分別稱爲巨集細胞服務區、毫微微細 胞服務區或微微細胞服務區。 圖16圖示了用於支援多個用戶的無線通訊系統ι6〇〇, 在該系統中可以實現本案内容。系統1600爲多個細胞服務 區1602 (例如,巨集細胞服務區1602A-1602G )提供通訊, 其中每一個細胞服務區由相應的存取點1604 (例如,存取點 1604 A-1604G)來服務。如圖16所示,存取終端例如, 存取終端1606A-1606L)可以隨時間分散於系統中的各個位 40 201119314 置。例如’每-個存取終端16G6可以根據該存取終端祕 是否有效和其是否處於軟切換當中,在較時刻,在前向鍵 路(FL)及/或反向鍵路(RL)上與一或多個存取點祕進 行通訊。無線通訊系、統1600可以在較大的地理區域上提供 服務。例如,巨集細胞服務區16〇2八_16〇2(5可以覆蓋鄰近的 幾個街區或者農村環境中的幾個英里。 圖17圖示了 —種示例性通訊系統1谓,其中在網路環 境中部署了-或多個毫微微存取點。具體而言,系統17〇〇 包括安裝在相對較小規模網路環境(例如,—或多個用戶居 住區173G)中的多個毫微微存取點㈣(例如,毫微微存 取點m0A和1710B)。每一個毫微微存取點i7i〇可以通 過DSL路由器、電境數據機、無線鍵路或者其他連接方式(未 圖示)來耗接到廣域網路1740 (例如,網際網路)和行動服 務供應商核心網路⑽。如下文所討論的,每—個毫微微存 取點17U)可以用於服務相關的存取終端⑽(例如,存取 終端Π20Α)和可選的其他(例如,混合或外幻存取级端 ⑽(例如,存取終端17卜換言之,到毫微微存取點 1710的存取是受到限制的,從而給定存取終端1720可以由 -組指定的(例如,家庭)毫微微存取點171〇服務,而不 2任何非指定的毫微微存取點171Q(例如,鄰點的毫 存取點1710)進行服務。 圖18圖示了覆蓋圖的示例1800,其中在該圖中定 蹤:域1802 (或者路由區域或位置區域),每一個區 域包括—些巨集覆蓋區域刪。這裏,與追縱區域刪A、 41 201119314 1802B和1 802C相關的覆蓋區域以粗線圖示,巨集覆蓋區域 1804由較大的六邊形來表示。追蹤區域18〇2還包括毫微微 覆蓋區域1 806。在該示例中’將每一個毫微微覆蓋區域18〇6 (例如,毫微微覆蓋區域18〇6C)描述成在一或多個巨集覆 蓋區域1804 (例如,巨集覆蓋區域1804B)中。但是,應當 理解的是,毫微微覆蓋區域1806中的一些或全部可以不位 於巨集覆蓋區域1804中。在實際中,可以在給定的追蹤區 域1802或巨集覆盍區域18Q4中定義很大數量的毫微微覆蓋 區域1806。此外,還可以在給定的追蹤區域i8〇2或巨集覆 蓋區域1804中定義一或多個微微覆蓋區域(未圖示)。 再次參見圖17’毫微微存取點1710的所有者可以訂閱 通過行動服務供應商核心網路1750提供的行動服務,例如, 3G行動服務。此外,存取終端172〇能夠在巨集環境和較小 規模(例如,居住區)網路環境中操作。換言之,根據存取 終端1720的當前位置,存取終端172〇可以由與行動服務供 應商核心網路i75〇相關的巨集細胞服務區存取點1760服 務,或者由一組毫微微存取點1710中的任意一個(例如, 位於相應用戶居住區1730中的毫微微存取點1710A和 1710B)來服務。例如,當用戶在家外時,他可以由標準巨 集存取點(例如,存取點1760)來服務,而當用戶在家時, 他由毫微微存取點(例如,存取點171〇a)來服務。這裏, 毫微微存取點1710可以向後相容於傳統存取終端172〇。 毫微微存取點1710可以部署在單一頻率或者多個頻率 上》根據具體的配置情況,該單一頻率或者所述多個頻率中 42 201119314 的一或多個可以與巨集存取點(例如,存取點丨76〇)所使用 的一或多個頻率重疊。 在一些態樣,對存取終端i 720進行配置以連接至優選 的毫微微存取點(例如,存取終端丨72〇的家庭毫微微存取 點)’ /、要該連接是可以實現的。例如,當存取終端丨72〇a 位於用戶居住區173〇中,那麼期望的是,存取終端172〇a 僅僅與家庭毫微微存取點171〇A或1710B進行通訊。 在一些態樣,如果存取終端1720操作在巨集蜂巢網路 1750中’但並不位於其最優選的網路(例如’如優先漫遊列 表中所規定的),那麼存取終端172〇可以使用更佳系統重 新選擇(BSR)程序來繼續搜索最優選網路(例如,優選的 毫微微存取點1710),這涉及對可用系統的定期掃描,以便 判斷更佳的系統當前是否可用,並隨後嘗試獲取該優選系 統。存取終端1720可以限制對特定頻段和通道的搜索。例 如’可以定義一或多個毫微微通道,從而一個區域中的所有 毫微微存取點(或者所有受限制的毫微微存取點)操作在這 些毫微微通道上。可以定期地重複對於最優選系統的搜索。 在發現優選的毫微微存取點171〇後,存取終端1720選擇該 毫微微存取點1710,並在其上進行登錄,以便當在其覆蓋區 域時進行使用。 在一些態樣’到毫微微存取點的存取是受限制的。例 如’給定毫微微存取點僅可以向某些存取終端提供某些服 務。在所謂的受限制(或封閉)存取的部署中,給定存取終 端可以僅由巨集細胞服務區行動網路和規定的一組毫微微 43 201119314 存取點(例如,位於相應的用戶居住區173·〇中的毫微微存 取點1710 )來服務β在一些實現中,可以限制存取點,以便 不向至少一個節點(例如,存取終端)提供訊令資料存取、 登錄、傳呼或服務中的至少一項。 在一些態樣,受限制的毫微微存取點(其還可以稱爲 封閉用戶群組家庭節點Β)是向受限制的規定的一組存取終 端提供服務的節點。該組存取終端可以根據需要臨時擴展或 者永久擴展。在一些態樣,可以將封閉用戶群組(CSG)定 義成共享存取終端的共同存取控制列表的一組存取點(例 如’毫微微存取點)。 雖然上文的描述在一些態樣涉及CSG,但本案内容通 常適用於包括一組一或多個細胞服務區(例如,至少一個存 取點)的任何無線細胞服務區集合,其中在該集合中,存在 特定於該集合的規定的關係。因此,CSG僅僅是無線細胞服 務區集合的一個示例。因此,應當理解的是,本案描述的概 念可以適用於其俜類型的規定集合或者無線細胞服務區組 合或者其他類似實體。 因此,在給定的毫微微存取點和給定的存取終端之間 存在各種關係。例如,從存取終端的角度來說,開放毫微微 存取點是指具有不受限制的存取的毫微微存取點(例如,該 毫微微存取點允許任何存取終端存取)^受限制毫微微存取 點是指以某種方式進行限制的毫微微存取點(例如,存取及 /或登錄受到限制家庭毫微微存取點是指授權該存取終端 存取和在其上操作的毫微微存取點(例如,爲規定的一組一 44 201119314 永久存取)。混合(或訪客)毫微微存 取點疋指在其上爲不同的存取終端提供不同的服務等級的 毫微微存取點。例如,可以允許—些存取終端(例如,非成 員)部分及/或臨時地存取,而允許其他存取終端(例如,成 員)優先地存取(例如,完全存取)。外來毫微微存取點是 指除了可能的緊急情形(例如,911撥叫)之外,不授權該 存取終端存取或者在其上操作的毫微微存取點。 / 從受限制的毫微微存取點的觀點來看,家庭存取終端 是指被授權存取該受限制的毫微微存取點的存取終端,其中 =受限制的毫微微存取點安裝在該存取終端的所有者的住 宅中(通常,家庭存取終端具有對此毫微微存取點的永久存 取卜訪客存料端是指具有對該受限制的毫微微存取點的 臨時存取的存取終端(例如,根據最終期限、制時間、位 元組、連接數或者某種其他標準或準則進行限制)。外來存 取終端是指除了可能的緊急情形例如,911撥叫之外,不允 許存取該受限制的毫微微存取點的存取終端(例如,不具有 心e或者不准許在該受限制的毫微微存取點登錄的存取終 端)。 爲了方便起見,本案的揭示内容描述了毫微微存取點 %楗下的各種功能。但是,應當理解的是微微存取點可以 爲較大的覆蓋區域提供相同或類似的功能。例如,微微存取 點可以是受限制的,可以針對給定的存取終端定義家庭微微 存取點等等β 本案内容可以在同時支援多個無線存取終端的通訊的 201119314 無線多工存取通訊系統中使用。這裏,每一個終端可以通過 前向鏈路和反向鏈路上的傳輸與一或多個存取點進行通 訊。前向鏈路(或下行鍵路)是指從存取點到終端的通訊鍵 路’反向鏈路(或上行鏈路)是指從終端到存取點的通訊鏈 路。可以通過單輸入單輸出系統、多輸入多輸出(ΜΙΜΟ ) 系統或者某種其他類型的系統來建立這種通訊鏈路。 ΜΙΜΟ系統使用多個發射天線和多個(化)接收 天線,來進行資料傳輸。由尽個發射天線和心個接收天線形 成的ΜΙΜΟ通道可以分解成沁個獨立通道,其也可以稱爲空 間通道,其中心$ min {%,~}。乂個獨立通道中的每一個 通道對應一個維度。如果使用由多個發射天線和接收天線所 產生的其他維度,則ΜΙΜΟ系統能夠提供改善的性能(例如, 更高的吞吐量及/或更高的可靠性)。 ΜΙΜΟ系統支援分時雙工(TDD )和分頻雙工(FDD ) » 在TDD系統中,前向鏈路傳輸和反向鏈路傳輸在相同的頻域 上,使得相互性(reciprocity )原理能夠從反向鏈路通道中 估計前向鏈路通道。這使得當在存取點有多個天線可用時, 該存取點能夠在前向鍵路上獲取發射波束形成增益。 圖19圖示了一種示例ΜΙΜΟ系統19〇()的無線設備 1910(例如’存取點)和無線設備195〇(例如存取終端)。 在設備1910,從資料源ι912向發射(τχ)資料處理器1914 提供用於多個資料流的訊務資料。隨後,在各自發射天線上 發射每一個資料流。 ΤΧ資料處理器1914根據爲每一個資料流所選的具體 46 201119314 編碼方案’對該資料流的訊務資料進行格式化、編碼和交 錯’以便提供編碼後資料。可以使用OFDM技術將每一個資 料流的編碼後資料與引導頻資料進行多工處理。一般情況 下’引導頻資料是以已知方式處理的已知資料模式,並且可 以在接收機系統處用來估計通道回應。隨後,可以根據爲每 一個資料流所選的特定調制方案(例如’ BPSK、QPSK、M-PSK 或Μ-QAM ),對該資料流的多工後的引導頻和編碼資料進 行調制(即,符號映射),以便提供調制符號。通過由處理 器1930執行的指令來決定每一個資料流的資料速率、編碼 和調制。資料記憶體1932可以儲存處理器1930或設備191〇 的其他元件所使用的程式碼、資料和其他資訊。 隨後’可以向ΤΧ ΜΙΜΟ處理器1920提供所有資料流 的調制符號,ΤΧ ΜΙΜΟ處理器1920可以進一步處理這些調 制符號(例如’ OFDM)。隨後,ΤΧ ΜΙΜΟ處理器1920向 %個收發機(XCVR)1922A到1922Τ提供化個調制符號流。 在一些態樣,ΤΧ ΜΙΜΟ處理器1920對於資料流的符號和用 於發射該符號的天線應用波束形成權重。 母一個收發機1922接收和處理各自的符號流,以便提 供一或多個類比信號,並進一步調節(例如,放大、濾波和 升頻轉換)這些類比信號以便提供適合於在ΜΙΜΟ通道上傳 輸的調制信號。分別從八r個天線1924Α到1924Τ發射來自 收發機1922A到1922T的心個調制信號。 在設備1950,由Λ/λ個天線1952A到1952R接收所發 射的調制信號,並將來自每一個天線1952的接收信號提供 47 201119314 給各自的收發機(XCVR) 1954A到1954R。每一個收發機 1954調節(例如’濾波、放大和降頻轉換)各自接收的信號, 數位化調節後的信號以提供取樣,並進一步處理這些取樣以 提供相應的「接收的」符號流。 隨後,接收(RX)資料處理器1960從個收發機1954 接收符號流並根據特定的接收機處理技術來處理個接收 的符號流’以便提供個「檢測的」符號流。隨後,RX資 料處理器1960解調、解交錯和解碼每一個檢測到的符號流, 以便恢復出該資料流的訊務資料。rX資料處理器196〇所執 行的處理與設備1910處的ΤΧ ΜΙΜΟ處理器1920和ΤΧ資料 處理器1914所執行的處理是相反的。 處理器1970定期地決定使用哪個預編碼矩陣(下面討 哪)。處理器1970形成包括矩陣索引部分和秩值部分的反 向鍵路訊息。資料記憶體1972可以儲存由處理器197〇或設 備1950的其他元件所使用的程式碼、資料和其他資訊。 反向鏈路訊息可以包括關於通訊鏈路及/或所接收的資 料流的各種類型資訊。隨後,該反向鍵路訊息由τχ資料處 理器1938處理,由調制器198〇進行調制由收發機i腿 到1954R進行調節,並發射回設備191〇,其中丁乂資料處理 器胸還從資料源1936接收用於多個資料流的訊務資料。 在設備mo,來自設備195G的調制信號由天線麗 進行接收,由收發機麗進行調節,由解調器(丽〇d) 1940進行解調,並由RX資料 益1942進行處理,以便 ^由設備测發射的反向鍵路訊息。隨後,處理器卵 48 201119314 決定使用哪個預編碼矩陣來決定波束形成權重,並隨後處理 所提取的訊息。 圖19還圖示了可以包括執行本案所示的存取控制操作 的一或多個元件的通訊元件。例如,存取控制元件〗99〇可 以與處理器1930及/或設備1910的其他元件協作,以便如本 案所示的使另一個設備(例如,設備195〇)存取設備192〇 β 同樣,存取控制元件1992可以與處理器197〇及/或設備195〇 的其他元件協作,以便使該設備能夠存取另一個設備(例 如,设備1910)。應當理解的是,對於每一個設備191〇和 195 0來說,所描述元件中的兩個或更多元件的功能可以由單 個元件來提供。例如,單個處理元件可以提供存取控制元件 1990和處理器1930的功能,單個處理元件可以提供存取控 制元件1992和處理器1970的功能。 本案的内容可以併入到各種類型的通訊系統及/或系統 疋件中。在一些態樣,本案的内容可以用於多工存取系統

For convenience, in Figure 15, the nodes 15 〇 2_15 〇 8 are illustrated as including some of the elements 'where these elements can be used in the various examples described herein. In implementations, one or more of the described elements may not be used in a given example. As an example, in some implementations, access terminal stains may not include wireless coverage detector 1542. Additionally, different In the implementation, more than _5 of the described components can provide *_ work energy. As an example, in some implementations, the paging controller 153A can perform the operations as described in Figures 3A and 3B, and in some implementations, the paging controller 153 can perform the operations as depicted in Figures 13A and 13B. operating. 38 201119314 Furthermore, in some implementations, the elements of FIG. 15 may be implemented in one or more processors (eg, the one or more processors are used and/or incorporated for storage by the processors) Information or code in the data memory to provide this functionality). For example, the functions of blocks 1522 and 1534_1544 may be implemented by a processor or some processor of the access terminal and a data memory of the access terminal (eg, by executing appropriate code and/or by processor elements) Properly configured). Similarly, the functionality of the block of the action manager 15〇4 can be implemented by a processor or some processor of the action manager and the data store of the action manager (eg, by executing appropriate code and/or by processor) Proper configuration of components). In addition, the function of the block of the access point gateway 15〇6 can be implemented by a processor or some processor of the access point gateway and the data memory of the access point gateway (for example, by executing appropriate code and / or through the appropriate configuration of the processor components). Moreover, the functionality of the block of the subscribing server 1508 can be implemented by a processor or processors of the subscribing server and the data memory of the subscribing server (eg, by executing appropriate code and/or by processor elements) Properly configured). As mentioned above, in some aspects, the content of the present case can be covered by macro-scale coverage (for example, a large area cellular network such as a 3G network, which is generally referred to as a macro cell service area network or WAN) and smaller. Scale coverage (eg, based on residential or building-based network environments, commonly referred to as lan) is used in networks. As the access terminal (AT) moves in the network, in some locations the access terminal can be served by an access point that provides macro coverage, while in other locations, the access terminal is provided with a smaller scale coverage. Access point to serve. In some aspects, smaller coverage nodes can be used to provide increased capacity growth, 39 201119314 indoor coverage, and different services (eg, a more robust user experience). In the description of the present case, a node providing coverage on a relatively large area, such as an access point, may be referred to as a macro access point, and a node providing coverage on a relatively small area (eg, a residential area) may Known as a femto access point, it should be understood that the present (4) capacity can be applied to nodes associated with other types of coverage areas. For example, a pico access point may provide coverage (e.g., coverage in a commercial building) over a smaller area than a macro area and larger than a femto area. In various applications, other terms may be used to degenerate macro access points, femto access points, or other access point type nodes. For example, a macro access point may be configured or referred to as an access node, base. Station, access point, evolution node B (eNodeB), macro cell service area, and so on. In addition, the femto access point can be configured or referred to as a Home Node B, a Home Evolution Node B, an Access Point Base Station, a Femto Cell Service Area, and the like. In some implementations, a node can be associated with one or more cell service areas or sectors (e.g., referred to as one or more cell service areas or sectors or divided into one or more cell service areas). A cell service area or sector associated with a macro access point, a femto access point, or a pico access point may be referred to as a macro cell service area, a femto cell service area, or a picocell service area, respectively. Fig. 16 illustrates a wireless communication system ι6〇〇 for supporting a plurality of users, in which the present contents can be realized. System 1600 provides communication for a plurality of cell service regions 1602 (e.g., macrocell service regions 1602A-1602G), wherein each cell service region is served by a corresponding access point 1604 (e.g., access point 1604 A-1604G) . As shown in Figure 16, the access terminals, e.g., access terminals 1606A-1606L), may be dispersed over time in various bits 40 201119314 in the system. For example, 'every access terminal 16G6 can be based on whether the access terminal secret is valid and whether it is in a soft handover, at a later time, on the forward key (FL) and/or the reverse key (RL). One or more access points secretly communicate. The wireless communication system, system 1600, can provide services over a large geographic area. For example, the macro cell service area is 16〇8_16〇2 (5 can cover several blocks in the neighborhood or a few miles in the rural environment. Figure 17 illustrates an exemplary communication system 1 in which the network - or multiple femto access points are deployed in the road environment. Specifically, the system 17 includes a plurality of millimeters installed in a relatively small-scale network environment (for example, - or a plurality of user residential areas 173G) Pico access points (4) (eg, femto access points m0A and 1710B). Each femto access point i7i〇 can be accessed via a DSL router, an electrical data modem, a wireless gateway, or other connection (not shown). Consumption to the wide area network 1740 (e.g., the Internet) and the mobile service provider core network (10). As discussed below, each femto access point 17U) can be used for service related access terminals (10) ( For example, access terminal 20) and optional other (eg, hybrid or external access level terminal (10) (eg, access terminal 17 in other words, access to femto access point 1710 is restricted, thereby A given access terminal 1720 can be specified by -group The (eg, home) femto access point 171 service, but not any non-designated femto access point 171Q (eg, the neighbor's milli access point 1710) is serviced. Figure 18 illustrates the overlay Example 1800, wherein in the figure is determined: field 1802 (or routing area or location area), each area includes - some macro coverage areas deleted. Here, related to the tracking area deletion A, 41 201119314 1802B and 1 802C The coverage area is illustrated by thick lines, and the macro coverage area 1804 is represented by a larger hexagon. The tracking area 18〇2 also includes a femto coverage area 1 806. In this example 'each femto coverage area 18〇6 (eg, femto coverage area 18〇6C) is depicted in one or more macro coverage areas 1804 (eg, macro coverage area 1804B). However, it should be understood that in femto coverage area 1806 Some or all of may not be located in the macro coverage area 1804. In practice, a large number of femto coverage areas 1806 may be defined in a given tracking area 1802 or macro coverage area 18Q4. Given chase One or more pico coverage areas (not shown) are defined in the trace area i8〇2 or the macro coverage area 1804. Referring again to Figure 17, the owner of the femto access point 1710 can subscribe to the core network through the mobile service provider. The mobile service provided by 1750, for example, 3G mobile service. In addition, the access terminal 172 can operate in a macro environment and a small scale (e.g., residential area) network environment. In other words, according to the current location of the access terminal 1720. The access terminal 172A may be served by a macro cell service area access point 1760 associated with the mobile service provider core network i75, or by any of a set of femto access points 1710 (eg, located in the corresponding The femto access points 1710A and 1710B) in the user residence area 1730 are served. For example, when the user is away from home, he can be served by a standard macro access point (eg, access point 1760), while when the user is at home, he is served by a femto access point (eg, access point 171〇a) ) to serve. Here, the femto access point 1710 can be backward compatible with the legacy access terminal 172. The femto access point 1710 can be deployed on a single frequency or multiple frequencies. Depending on the particular configuration, the single frequency or one or more of the multiple frequencies 42 201119314 can be associated with a macro access point (eg, The access point 丨 76〇) overlaps one or more frequencies used. In some aspects, access terminal i 720 is configured to connect to a preferred femto access point (e.g., a home femto access point of access terminal ) 72〇), which is achievable . For example, when the access terminal 72a is located in the user's residential area 173, it is desirable that the access terminal 172A communicates only with the home femto access point 171A or 1710B. In some aspects, if the access terminal 1720 operates in the macrocell network 1750 'but not in its most preferred network (eg, as specified in the preferred roaming list), then the access terminal 172 can Using a Better System Reselection (BSR) procedure to continue searching for the most preferred network (e.g., preferred femto access point 1710), which involves periodic scanning of available systems to determine if a better system is currently available, and An attempt is then made to acquire the preferred system. Access terminal 1720 can limit the search for specific frequency bands and channels. For example, one or more femto channels may be defined such that all femto access points (or all restricted femto access points) in an area operate on these femto channels. The search for the most preferred system can be repeated periodically. Upon discovery of the preferred femto access point 171, the access terminal 1720 selects the femto access point 1710 and logs in thereon for use in its coverage area. Access to the femto access point is limited in some aspects. For example, a given femto access point may only provide certain services to certain access terminals. In a so-called restricted (or closed) access deployment, a given access terminal may only be served by a macro cell service area mobile network and a defined set of Femto 43 201119314 access points (eg, located in the corresponding user) The femto access point 1710 in the residential area 173.) to serve the beta. In some implementations, the access point may be restricted so as not to provide access to, at least one node (e.g., an access terminal), data access, login, At least one of paging or service. In some aspects, a restricted femto access point (which may also be referred to as a closed user group home node) is a node that provides services to a restricted set of access terminals. The set of access terminals can be temporarily expanded or permanently extended as needed. In some aspects, a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) can be defined as a set of access points (e. g., ' femto access points) that share a common access control list of access terminals. Although the above description relates to CSG in some aspects, the present disclosure generally applies to any set of wireless cell service areas including a set of one or more cell service areas (eg, at least one access point), wherein in the set There is a prescribed relationship specific to the set. Therefore, CSG is just one example of a collection of wireless cell service areas. Therefore, it should be understood that the concepts described in this context can be applied to a defined set of its type or a combination of wireless cell service areas or other similar entities. Thus, there are various relationships between a given femto access point and a given access terminal. For example, from the perspective of an access terminal, an open femto access point refers to a femto access point with unrestricted access (eg, the femto access point allows access by any access terminal)^ A restricted femto access point refers to a femto access point that is restricted in some way (eg, access and/or login restricted family femto access point refers to authorizing access to the access terminal and A femto access point that operates on (eg, a defined set of 44 201119314 permanent accesses). A hybrid (or guest) femto access point refers to a different level of service provided to different access terminals thereon. Femto access points. For example, some access terminals (e.g., non-members) may be allowed to access and/or temporarily access, while other access terminals (e.g., members) are allowed to access preferentially (e.g., completely Access. An alien femto access point refers to a femto access point that is not authorized to access or operate on the access terminal except for possible emergency situations (eg, 911 dialing). Restricted femto access point Pointly, the home access terminal refers to an access terminal authorized to access the restricted femto access point, wherein the restricted femto access point is installed in the owner's residence of the access terminal. (Usually, the home access terminal has a permanent access to the femto access point. The visitor storage end refers to an access terminal having temporary access to the restricted femto access point (eg, according to the final The term, system time, byte, number of connections, or some other standard or criterion is limited.) The foreign access terminal means that access to the restricted one is not allowed except for possible emergency situations such as 911 dialing. An access terminal of a pico access point (eg, an access terminal that does not have a heart e or does not permit login at the restricted femto access point). For convenience, the disclosure of the present disclosure describes femto access. Point to various functions under %. However, it should be understood that a pico access point can provide the same or similar functionality for a larger coverage area. For example, a pico access point can be restricted and can be given for a given The access terminal defines a home pico access point, etc. The content of the present case can be used in the 201119314 wireless multiplex access communication system that supports communication of multiple wireless access terminals at the same time. Here, each terminal can pass the forward link. And the transmission on the reverse link communicates with one or more access points. The forward link (or downlink link) refers to the communication link from the access point to the terminal 'reverse link (or uplink) ) refers to the communication link from the terminal to the access point. This communication link can be established by a single-input single-output system, a multiple-input multiple-output (ΜΙΜΟ) system, or some other type of system. The transmitting antenna and the plurality of (receiving) receiving antennas are used for data transmission. The ΜΙΜΟ channel formed by one transmitting antenna and one receiving antenna can be decomposed into two independent channels, which can also be called a spatial channel, and its center $ min {%,~}. Each of the independent channels corresponds to one dimension. If other dimensions generated by multiple transmit and receive antennas are used, the system can provide improved performance (e.g., higher throughput and/or higher reliability). The system supports time division duplexing (TDD) and frequency division duplexing (FDD). In TDD systems, the forward link transmission and reverse link transmission are in the same frequency domain, enabling the reciprocity principle. The forward link channel is estimated from the reverse link channel. This enables the access point to acquire transmit beamforming gain on the forward key when multiple antennas are available at the access point. Figure 19 illustrates a wireless device 1910 (e.g., 'access point) and wireless device 195 (e.g., access terminal) of an exemplary system 19(). At device 1910, traffic data for a plurality of data streams is provided from data source ι 912 to a transmit (τ χ) data processor 1914. Each data stream is then transmitted on the respective transmit antenna. The data processor 1914 formats, codes, and interleaves the traffic data for the data stream based on the particular 46 201119314 encoding scheme selected for each data stream to provide the encoded data. The encoded data of each of the data streams can be multiplexed with the pilot frequency data using OFDM techniques. In general, the pilot frequency data is a known data pattern that is processed in a known manner and can be used at the receiver system to estimate channel response. The multiplexed pilot and encoded data for the data stream can then be modulated according to a particular modulation scheme selected for each data stream (eg, 'BPSK, QPSK, M-PSK, or Μ-QAM) (ie, Symbol mapping) to provide modulation symbols. The data rate, coding and modulation for each data stream is determined by instructions executed by processor 1930. The data memory 1932 can store code, data, and other information used by the processor 1930 or other components of the device 191. The modulation symbols for all data streams can then be provided to the processor 1920, which can further process the modulation symbols (e.g., 'OFDM). The processor 1920 then provides a stream of modulation symbols to the % transceivers (XCVR) 1922A through 1922. In some aspects, the processor 1920 applies beamforming weights to the symbols of the data stream and to the antenna from which the symbol is being transmitted. A parent transceiver 1922 receives and processes the respective symbol streams to provide one or more analog signals and further conditions (e.g., amplifies, filters, and upconverts) the analog signals to provide modulation suitable for transmission over the chirp channel. signal. The modulated signals from transceivers 1922A through 1922T are transmitted from eight r antennas 1924 to 1924, respectively. At device 1950, the transmitted modulated signals are received by Λ/λ antennas 1952A through 1952R and the received signals from each antenna 1952 are provided 47 201119314 to respective transceivers (XCVR) 1954A through 1954R. Each transceiver 1954 conditions (e. g., 'filter, amplifies, and downconverts) the respective received signals, digitizes the conditioned signals to provide samples, and further processes the samples to provide a corresponding "received" symbol stream. The receive (RX) data processor 1960 then receives the symbol streams from the transceivers 1954 and processes the received symbol streams ' according to a particular receiver processing technique to provide a "detected" symbol stream. The RX data processor 1960 then demodulates, deinterleaves, and decodes each detected symbol stream to recover the traffic data for the data stream. The processing performed by the rX data processor 196 is the reverse of the processing performed by the processor 1920 and the data processor 1914 at the device 1910. The processor 1970 periodically determines which precoding matrix to use (which is discussed below). Processor 1970 forms a reverse link message comprising a matrix index portion and a rank value portion. Data memory 1972 can store code, data, and other information used by processor 197 or other components of device 1950. The reverse link message can include various types of information about the communication link and/or the received data stream. Subsequently, the reverse link message is processed by the τχ data processor 1938, modulated by the modulator 198〇, adjusted by the transceiver i leg to the 1954R, and transmitted back to the device 191〇, wherein the data file of the data processor is also transmitted from the device Source 1936 receives traffic data for multiple streams. At device mo, the modulated signal from device 195G is received by antenna MN, adjusted by transceiver MN, demodulated by demodulator (丽〇d) 1940, and processed by RX data benefit 1942, so that the device Measure the reverse link information of the launch.
